Riz Ahmed’s stock has risen massively in 2016, first with an incredible performance in The Night Of, and now with the immininent release of Star Wars spin-off Rogue One.

The Four Lions actor and MC recently joined Jimmy Fallon who, knowing Riz’s talent as a rapper, asked him to drop a freestyle based on Yoda, Darth Vader and Lando Calrissian. The London-born actor looked particularly terrified when he realised he had to rhyme something with the latter, but he managed it.

There was a very quick-witted line about Princess Leia and lightsabers and something else about Donald Trump not wanting him in the country.

Elsewhere in the interview Riz revealed how he got his Rogue One role – by spamming the director with 14 different auditions via email.

Rogue One is released on December 15 in the UK.
